Speedy deletion nomination of KidCodeIt

Hello Maxerich404,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged KidCodeIt for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Jbh ^Talk 20:36, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of KidCodeIt

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on KidCodeIt requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Moved talk page content

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (your reason here) --Maxerich404 (talk) 20:42, 22 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hey. Im trying to make a page that tells the history of our business. There are tons of other businesses that have wikipedia pages. why is that not allowed?

Wikipedia has policies and guidelines on what is appropriate to include in the encyclopedia. For articles the most important thing to be done is establish notability. For this we have out general notability guidelines which in short require significant coverage of the subject in independent, reliable sources. There are also various specific notability guidelines which give additional, usually easier to meet, criteria to establish notability. In this case those are the specific notability criteria for businesses and organizations. When you write an article you need to insure you have provided references which demonstrate notability.

Since you have stated here that you or your company are the subject of this article you should become familiar with out conflict of interest policy.

You may want to consider using the Articles for Creation process which will help by providing a review to insure your article meets Wikipedia's minimum standards before it is made "live" in Main Space. This will give you more time to work on your article since drafts are not subject to the same criteria as Main space articles.

The policies and guidelines of Wikipedia can be a bit difficult to get a handle on at first so if I can be of help please feel free to contact me on my talk page or {{ping}} me by placing {{ping|Jbhunley}} on any talk page and signing the edit with ~~~~. There are also volunteers who specialize in helping new editors as WP:TEAHOUSE Please read the material I have blue linked above it goes into our policies and guidelines in detail.

I moved this so you can see it - also, be careful about reusing content from your company's website. It looks like portions of it was closely paraphrased from the official website, which ran afoul of WP:COPYVIO. You could potentially give up the content as fair use, but you'd likely still need to re-write it. Also, try to avoid things like "we" and "our". Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 09:07, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

Hello, Maxerich404, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!
